GMS RLSS Software Revision 3-2023

Follow the link below to download the RLSS Software Revisions for March to update the database:

Download and Save this file to the RLSSRevision folder on the network drive, or on the C drive if you are not networked. Click on Save, or Save As, to select the location, then select the drive and path where the RLSSRevision folder exists.

A. On one workstation, using Windows Explorer, locate the RLSSRevision folder or the folder where you downloaded the RLSSMarch23.exe  (either the network drive or the C drive if not networked). Double click on the exe file. If you get an Open file – Security warning, click on Run.

B. Unzip to folder: Select the RLSSRevision folder (located either on the network drive or the C drive if not networked), then in that field type manually \March23, so that the path for unzipping is RLSSRevision\March23 and click on Unzip. You will need to enter the password , RLSSRevision23 when you unzip this file.  It should tell you that 25 files unzipped successfully. Close out of the Self Extractor form.

To install the 1.1.1.25 revision, please do the following:

Note: all SQL server users will need to complete a backup of the database through SQL Server Management Studio prior to installing the revision.

Note:  If your agency is networked, the RLSSDBUpdater file in the RLSSRevision\March23 on the server, needs to be run from a workstation that has GMS-RLSS installed and the ODBC setup for the database locations.

1. Locate and double-click on RLSSDBUpdater.exe that is located in the RLSSRevision\March23 folder. A grid listing all databases set up in tblCompanies in the current database will be displayed. Click on Process.
2. This process will Backup, Compact and Repair, and Update Access databases. It will only update SQL databases listed.
3. Upon successful completion of this process, you will receive the message Update Completed!

Note: On each workstation when you click on the GMS-RLSS icon to go into the application, the software will compare the GMSRLSS.exe to the database. If they are not the most recent versions, you will get the message “There is a newer version of the application. Your application needs to be updated.” Click on Ok. This will copy the GMSRLSS.exe and any other pertinent files into C:GMSRLSS so you are always assured each workstation is using the latest version. On each workstation, click on Help and About. The version should now be 1.1.1.25.

Note: Should you get an error when logging into GMS-RLSS, that means your computer/network security is preventing the proper files from being copied. You can go to steps A and B above and unzip the RLSSMarch23 file to your workstation into the C:GMSRLSS.
